When Everyone Knows But You
By Dave Markowitz

You ever have one of those moments where everyone else seems to know something but you? One of those combination ‘a-ha’ and a ‘self-smack-of-the-third-eye-with-the-palm’ moments?

About a year and a half ago I met someone who ran a local empath support group. He swore I was empathic, but I didn’t really pay much attention to that. I was happy just to have met someone I could hang out with after being urged by the Universe to move 3,000 miles west to Portland Oregon from New York City. BTW, that was also one of the aforementioned moments:

I used to travel to the West coast to lecture on medical intuition and mind-body medicine from NY. Seriously, I’d fly 3,000 miles to speak to a room of anywhere between 20 and 30 people at a small alternative health expo! Not quite what I’d experienced in NYC; especially after following Deepak Chopra in front of a few thousand, but still those moments were fun, educational, and I got to share my gift, book, and sessions with new hearts and minds.

Big A-Ha Moment Number 1:

When in both California and Oregon, so many people asked me, “So, when are you moving here?’ I was flattered they’d want me to, but had a HUGE NYC chip on my shoulder that didn’t let me believe I’d live any place other than the big apple. But then people in NY started asking me when I was moving West, too! Well, after about 600 people asked me the same question, I thought it might be a good idea to ask the same question to The Universal Mind. And what I felt was the energetic equivalent of the ‘self-smack-of-the-third-eye-with-the-palm!’

Back to present day.

Over the last 6 months or so, almost all of my new clients, whether they found me by Internet, referral, or read my book, were dealing with similar issues. At one point it seemed like there were about 20 in a row who were really empathic and unhealthy in various ways. The messages I intuited were that their causes of pain and illness were not their own! Sure, we have our own ‘stuff’ to deal with, but most of my clients had been on the spiritual path for so long they’d done a lot of work on themselves already! Yet they were still unhealthy. How can this be?!?!?

Well, for those that are deeply on the path, our vibration raises and we have intimate awareness of our interconnectedness. So much so that energetically it’s really easy to get enmeshed with others. Especially those we’re close to like parents and children. While that at times can be a good thing, other times it can be disastrous.

It’s wonderful to espouse the spiritual truth that we’re all one, but we still have to recognize that we’re also all two! I don’t need to carry other people’s burdens and neither do you because metaphysically speaking, no one is responsible for the soul of another person. We’re not doing them a favor by carrying their issues. In fact, we’re delaying their growth and hindering our own health!

So as a newly claimed empath and intuitive, I began to get new information on how to clear those issues from my client’s lives and bodies, and more importantly, received new information on how to prevent these empathic gifts from becoming burdensome.
I’ve been using these techniques myself and the results have been wonderful. I used to get the proverbial contact high when in social situations, but now I can monitor and control how much gets in and how much stays and how much leaves and when! Sometimes it’s fun to feel different things than I normally would in certain situations and sometimes it’s really good not to feel any of it. But imagine being able to control it at will! What a health advantage that would be!

Another thing to note is that the really empathic ones (most of you, I imagine) are picking up on the collective vibration in addition to that of those physically or emotionally closest to you. With the recent uprisings in the Middle East and the events in Japan just a few months ago, grief and fear are permeating the air. It takes a very conscious effort to not let ourselves be affected by these events in a negative way!

Of course all persons are different, and the techniques for some might not be the same for others, and that’s where being a medical intuitive comes in handy. That one-size-fits-all cookbook diagnosis and remedy too often used in the west has little bearing on you the individual, especially a high-vibration, empathic individual. You have to know what’s best for you, and you’re not gonna find that in any book. Well, you might; my upcoming book, “Self-Care For The Self Aware” is going to be quite helpful, but until that comes out, I’m making myself available for one-on-one phone sessions. In fact, I just intuited to offer Kinetics readers a special deal!

Seriously, I had no idea it was going there until this moment! I’m hearing that Kinetics readers and first-time clients can get an additional $50 off their intuitive health consultation by phone in May and June, 2011. Go to www.Self-CareForTheSelf-Aware.com , click on the Private Sessions page, and write me from there indicating you’re a Kinetics reader to get your extra discount on your road to awesome high-vibration health.

How fun is being an intuitive sometimes!?!?!?!
